Allentown Fair says it will announce another headliner for this year’s Aug. 28-Sept. 3 run during the March 10 Lehigh County Bicentennial Community Celebration at the fair’s Agri-Plex.

And it will be another country music act.

And you could win front-row seats to see it.

The fair is not releasing any further word on who the new show, which will play Aug. 31, is.

But it’s country. Fair Marketing Director Bonnie Brosious confirmed that in a statement, but said it’s artist “that has cross-over appeal on pop radio stations.”

“Tipping off that the third show in its 2012 line-up to be announced will have a bit of a ‘twang’ to it, [radio station WCTO-FM] Cat Country 96’s Program Director Jerry Padden will do the honors revealing the artist and special guest,” the fair said in a statement.

OK, so now it’s your turn: Given the fair’s hints, who do you think they’ll announce Saturday?

Whomever it is, it will mark the second country act from for this year’s fair after the announcement of Blake Shelton playing Aug. 29.

Tickets for his show go on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday at www.Ticketmaster.com, at 800-745-3000, at Ticketmaster centers and at the box office on the fairgrounds at 17th and Chew streets, Allentown..

The fair also has announced Nickelodeon teen act Victoria Justice on Sept. 2.

“We are excited to be able to announce this concert during our County’s 200th anniversary party,” Brosious said. And as “a special celebration gift,” the fair will take registrations to win two front-row seats to the show before it goes on sale to the public.

The drawing will take place about 5:30 p.m. Entrants will not have to be present to win.

The fair and its nonprofit operator the Lehigh County Agricultural Society, marking their 160th year in existence this year, will be among the exhibitors during the 11 a.m.-8 p.m. county bicentennial event, which will feature interactive, historic and educational programs.

Come to Lehigh Valley Music after noon tomorrow to find out who the announced artists is.

JOHN J. MOSER has been around long enough to have seen the original Ramones in a small club in New Jersey, U2 from the fourth row of a theater and Bob Dylan's born-again tours. But he also has the number for All-American Rejects' Nick Wheeler on his cell phone, wrote the first story ever done on Jack's Mannequin and hung out in Wiz Khalifa's hotel room.
